  1. In all, Death to Spies would be a pretty good title if it just had a little more to it beyond the standard sneak, eliminate and impersonate formula that’s repeated too often.

    Death to Spie's dry technical approach isn't for everybody, but its 10 challenging missions will still put sweat on your brow and a pounding pulse in your ears for under $30. [Jan 2008, p.90]
  3. It may not be easy doing sneaky dirty work in the Second World War, but it is more entertaining than you'd expect.
  4. Offers a rather refreshing take on war-status games. It's nowhere near the excellence of other established stealth games, but it does offer enough innovation and open-endedness to get enough entertainment out of.
  5. All in all, Death to Spies is well done, but it will require the right type of player to truly enjoy it. It has a few quirks (particularly in the user interface) that can drive you nuts, but as I said at the beginning: you were warned. Death comes very easily to spies!

    Relies on trial and error over good intelligence. [June 2008, p.108]

    This is an horrible game. Yes, the idea is good because you are a soviet spy in Germany and other places, but the AI is absolutly horrible! IfThis is an horrible game. Yes, the idea is good because you are a soviet spy in Germany and other places, but the AI is absolutly horrible! If you make yourself seen even the soldiers from the other side of the map can see you and you are dead in 2 seconds. It seems that the soldiers has a common mind: if one identifies you, than all the German army knows where you are and what is your desguise.
    And the weapons are a lot, but what you really need is more silenced guns! And you can bring principal weapons only if they are german, so when you ever used english weapons like the Springfield '03? And there are only the MP 40 and the K 98 you can bring without being uncovered!
    And there is NO story, only a mission after the other! And nobody tell you who you are, why you are fighting... Nothing!

    Nice game. Story and the sounds are okay, the graphics a bit old. One of the best spy game and a bit hard. You can save, so no para. :D
